This whitepaper reviews design options for the IsoDAR electron antineutrino source. IsoDAR is designed to produce $2.6 \times 10^{22}$ electron antineutrinos per year with an average energy of 6.4 MeV, using isotope decay-at-rest. Aspects…
This Conceptual Design Report addresses the site-specific issues associated with the deployment of the IsoDAR experiment at the Yemilab site. IsoDAR@Yemilab pairs the IsoDAR cyclotron-driven $\bar{\nu}_e$ source with the proposed Liquid…
IsoDAR seeks to place a high-power-cyclotron and target combination, as an intense source of $\bar{\nu}_e$ at the level of $\sim 10^{23}$/year, close to a kiloton-scale neutrino detector in order to gain sensitivity to very short-baseline…
We propose to test for short baseline neutrino oscillations, implied by the recent reevaluation of the reactor antineutrino flux and by anomalous results from the gallium solar neutrino detectors. The test will consist of producing a 75 kCi…
